What Formula 1??

Oh wait, that's CART and IRL that'll be out on their butts shortly.
Nevermind, I get them easily confused.  ;^)

I do like the grassroots aspect of the GRM $1500 challenge but there's
always gonna be another enthusiast who can do better chassis/body/whatever
work than me.  I can deal with that.  It's the "shop" cars that I have a
problem with and I believe that was the only gripe about the challenge.

I wonder if the builders fee on that Spridget is more than the alleged $1500
parts cost?  Also, I thought you weren't supposed to be able to sell off
more stuff (dollar wise) than the car had originally cost you.

Oh well, it was still a neat idea from a very good magazine.  All except for
the maniac with the minivan.  ;^)

See you on course.
